Albion05:
November people should get ready!...
is all happening now!...
I was contacted this afternoon to provide my refusal letter for Canadian study permit and my sponsors statement of account!....
God will see us through!.
I must testify in this house.
I was given 7 days to do that.

yes o november get ready.
I was contacted to bring kids birth certificates and spouse's birth certificate too
i was also given 7 days to respond.

liliberth:
When will it reach December people ooo. Gosh the wait is long. God see us through. Amen.

When in december did u apply, i applied on the 15th and did biometrics 17th was asked for medicals 18th.. status says under processing time

You are very correct, I realized and concur with you and its evident based on the contact by your CO. Your Visa is on fast track and it will not crashland in Jesus name.

Albion05:
Noted!...
but what you just said does not stand.
Anytime processing time is been updated it reflects all on the application.
For example... if I applied on the 23/11/2017 and as at that time the processing time was 45-57 days and it was updated on the 20/12/2917 to 57- 77 days. From this indication I can't contact them because am still withing the processing time. The period am suppose to contact them if the update that was done on 20/12/2017 stands till feb, 7 2017. I will contact them from 8th feb, 2018. If you calculate it that gives you exactly 77 days.
But an update was done today been the 18th of January, 2018 to 21-45 days for higher education sector to be specific. So calculate from 23/11/2017 when you submitted your application with the new update. I have simply surpass my processing time based on the 21- 45 days. So am eligible to write or email them because my processing time have surpass.

Mine was updated too, Sorry for the misleading idea. But remember I said I stand to be corrected. Cheers ALL

Churkie:
E ma bi nu, those of you that traveled with food stuffs from Nigeria, please share your experience at POE and how you packaged your kaya. I'm considering it oh, E joor

I just arrived in sydney and I came in with good amount of Nigerian foods like ogbono, egusi, crayfish, dried pepper , maggi chicken and other stuffs . But I made sure everything was blended to powder form , avoid coming in with seeds, and fresh foods like fish and any other thing that is fresh cos they will be rejected.i even came in with some drugs for cold , catarrh and pain reliefs. everything passed through without any hassle.

Homeboy as you rightly called yourself.
The hussle is real!..........

Your main concern should be for the embassy to grant you student visa first, so that you can gain entry in to the country.
Getting visa grant with diploma courses is very difficult but possible ( Are you talking about graduate diploma or just diploma )?.

You have to consider first........ your age, if you have obtained first degree or not, if the diploma course you intend to pursue has been your primary work you have been doing before.

A strong Statement of purpose or letter of intent to be able to convinced the Visa officer or case officer.

When you finally find your self in OZ with the diploma course that you applied..... yes you can pursue your permanent residence from there.

Most importantly to gain access or visa grant with diploma courses should be your concern and not PR.
Visa grant first before PR.
You can as well check this thread for PR route!..
